10 Degrees of CSU Basketball
- Colorado State holds a very definitive 84-33 advantage in the series, including 46-11 at home. CSU has won the last six meetings and 18 of the last 20, with the only losses in that time both occurring in the 2017-18 season.
- Against current Mountain West Conference teams, head coach Niko Medved is 33-26 overall (19-8 at home), with a 33-25 record while at CSU.
- For the fourth week in a row, CSU is ranked in the Associated Press top 25, as the Rams are No. 20 in the AP poll, while also being ranked No. 19 in the USA Today Coaches Poll.  This is the first time in program history that the Rams have been ranked for four consecutive weeks by the AP.
- The 10-game winning streak is also tied for the third longest in CSU history with Stew Morrill's 1997-98 team that went to the NIT, with Boyd Grant's 1988-89 NCAA Tournament squad just ahead in second at 11 consecutive games won.
- Junior Isaiah Stevens is just six points away from becoming the 32nd Ram in history to reach the 1,000-point mark in his career
- Ranked for the first time since 2014-15, CSU is 17th nationally in fewest turnovers at 10.2 per game and fourth on assist-to-turnover ratio at 1.72.
- While there are nine other schools ranked in the top 25 nationally in at least two of the three shooting percentages (field goal, 3-point and free throw), Colorado State is the only program ranked in all three (1st in FG, 2nd in 3P FG, 2ndd in FT).Â
- The Rams rally from an 11-point deficit against Mississippi State was the third time this season and 11th time under head coach Niko Medved that CSU had rallied from double-digits down for the win.
- CSU is outscoring opponents by an average of 11.6 points per game in the second half, including five games with 50 or more in the final 20 minutes.
- Junior forward David Roddy leads CSU and the Mountain West in scoring, while also being seventh in rebounding and eighth in blocked shots.
